How were the ship stats for the sample ships in the S:FO rulebook determined? After my first two solo games I tried to build the Negali and Kalaedinese battleships from scratch and they aren't legal in that they require more SU than their hull sizes allow. Were these designs converted from Starmada Admiralty or Nova? Were all the sample ships converted and not built using the S:FO starship construction rules? Thanks!

The ships were converted from The Admiralty Edition Imperial Starmada sourcebook.Under Starmada AE the Negali have a +1 tech level in all tech areas and the Kalaedinese a +1 tech level in general tech and weapons.Fleet OPS does not have tech levels implemented so if the ship was legal under AE ignore the SU over-cost when converting.
